demanded we stop being tough. Think about Roger Reid, not a tougher coach out there. Blue collar lunch pail stuff, fans didn't like it, even though he was going to the NCAA tourney and winning conference titles. Bronco, same thing. Fans can't stand his business like approach and toughness. Run him out too. We like softies.

Think about how soft are teams have become? Especially basketball right now.

A lot can be said about the honor code too, and the rise of social media getting guys in trouble. We just don't get the same tough guys we used to get. Think McMahon.

Lastly, we just got arrogant. We really did. We jumped out of the MWC for INDY/WCC and patted ourselves on the back, trying to save face from the PAC 12 P5 snub. Our feelings were hurt, understandable, and we needed to punch back at Utah. It was worth a shot.

Sure, financially it's been great apparently. But everything else it's been a disaster. We don't belong in the WCC, and we don't belong as an independent. We just don't. It won't get better until we get back into a conference with similar size schools who play the same sports and have fanbases and we fit in again. Right now we are a ship lost at sea without a sail. Just getting blown in the wind without a port of call.
